The Terminal

What would you do if were stuck in a country that is not your own, you're not allowed outside of the airport, and you can't return to your own country? Viktor Navorski is about to find out. Viktor, played by Tom Hanks, comes to America (New York) and while he is in flight, his country, Krakozhia, is taken over by rebels and is no longer recognized as a country. According to regulations, since he doesn't have a country, he is not allowed onto American soil and his passport is not valid to get him back to Krakozhia. Viktor is forced to live within the terminal.

Tom Hanks does a superb job playing this unfortunate foreigner stuck with no where to go. Let’s not forget about the secondary characters, they are also very interesting. There's a Hispanic man that gets Viktor to help him with girl. The girl, by the way, is an officer that happens to also be a Trekkie. Spielberg has done it again; he's presented us with another unique movie, with a wonderful story, and a number of wonderful characters. He's presented us with a story that runs the gamut of emotions. You laugh, you feel sadness, you feel wonder, and you feel excitement.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and I believe that any fan of Tom Hanks will also. Hanks has once again shown us the actor that he is. I'm going to give this movie a 9.5 out of 10. The Terminal is wonderful and it has appeal for everyone. Watch it for yourself and enjoy!
